The best ones never want you to register just to download/stream stuff, but somehow people keep using crap, jump-though-hoops sites that want half your life history before you can do anything :(( I can quite understand sites wanting some form of registration for *uploading* stuff for spam protection etc. but that is a different issue altogether. Here are a few site suggestions. http://www.box.net - definitely the easiest for one-offs. extremely user friendly. http://www.kara-moon.com/ - has a file size limit of 8mB. Nice community based site http://www.muzic.com/ - only mp3 format but lets you build up a detailed song card. Very active site http://www.archive.org - allows you to set up full album archives. Not so easy to use and can be confusing for web newbies to download from. http://lam.fugal.net/ - good for linux based music with space for some text details, but only stores YOUR url http://www.musicip.com/ - again only stores your url, patchy turn-around. http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=14 - the 'music cafe'. Quite high profile *very* fast turnround. only stores your url. -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
